What is Tranexamic Acid Powder?

Tranexamic acid powder (TXA) is a synthetic compound that belongs to the class of drugs known as antifibrinolytics. It is available in various forms, including as a powder, and it is used for several medical purposes.

It is a great topical ingredient that can improve uneven skin tone caused by a variety of causes. Research shows that the whitening effect of tranexamic acid at a concentration of 2% to 5% is comparable to that of hydroquinone, and it can also be used on chloasma that are difficult to eliminate.If you are using products containing hydroquinone (a prescription drug in Taiwan), you can use it together with tranexamic acid products, which may have a better whitening effect.Although hydroquinone is well tolerated when used as directed, comparative studies show that tranexamic acid is better tolerated than hydroquinone.

Are Tranexamic Acid Safe?

Studies have also shown that tranexamic acid is very safe and can be used daily for several months. When using it 1 to 2 times a day at a concentration between 2% and 5%, results will be seen in approximately 2 to 3 months. In fact, after 12 weeks of using broad-effect sunscreen products and daily use of tranexamic acid, 96% of experimental subjects saw significant lightening effects.
